Today marks twenty years since our first field season in Aswan ended. It was ten days filled with exciting work, plenty of sun, sand, and archaeology. There is still so much work to be done in the field that we may be there for another twenty years!

It is with great sadness that we share the passing of our dear colleague and friend, Stan Hendrickx. Without him, our work in Aswan will not be the same. Without him, the field of Early Egypt will not be the same. We will miss you dearly.

Tomorrow we are going to present the BORDERSCAPE Project in Poznan!

Please join us for the next BORDERSCAPE Project Seminar!
